3. Openness and ability to be copied instead of privacy and inimitability

4. Self-organization and the networking approach instead of hierarchy

5. Cooperation and partnership instead of rivalry and separateness

They provide access to the information, resources and opportunities to those who had been previously deprived due to their place of residence, financial straits, illness or other circumstances.
